but I do like the senior captains gave themselves a $700 bump in the new LOA...[emoji3166]
They did not give up leverage because they figure it will take 6 months to get the deal done. The last contract was done quickly and there are tons of loopholes in it. They don’t want to make the same mistake twice. The negotiations are progressing, just slower than people want. Why take money away from people if it will not help the overall process. It would be a different story if the company was stonewalling or delaying, but that is not the case.
